… I would like to add that Cisco System VPN Client also do not run (all other previous versions of CFP allow VPN to run without any problem). I turned the Firewall off to solve the problem at this moment.
I have tried to use training mode for both Firewall/D+. But the even in the training mode the VPN still get blocked. I have added Cisco into the trusted vendor, and all applications are added to the trusted list (selected from running process), and none of them make it to work.
This is strange though because I ran VPN and CFP since January 2008, and there is no need to tweak any setting until this version (CFP 3.0.25.378).
:BNC That is a good idea ! Man I really forgot about that. I have to revert to 2 versions back though, since the one that released before .378 really gone wild. Hope new update will be available soon.
By the way, are there any easy way to revert the CFP version ?
I’m running Vista SP1 with CVPN 5.0.03.0530 and i have no problem what so ever with my vpn, on 3.0.25.378
Please check if the “Cisco Systems, Inc. VPN Service” Service is started if not try to start it with fw/d+ disabled.
Local Subsystem has to do with the cvpnd process and is the Cisco Service.
I have checked the “Cisco Systems, Inc. VPN Service” and it shown as “started” all the times. The only thing I did to get rid of the error message from VPN is just change Firewall status to disabled (other choices are not working as well).
So the problem is in the firewall not in the D+ settings.
Try to find the following in the Network Security Policy
C:\Program files\Cisco Systems\VPN Client\cvpnd.exe and let me know what rules you have for it.
Or you can try to delete it and see if it pop’s up again if you enable the firewall and restart the Cisco Service.
My guess is the TCP Connection to the loopback address. It needs TCP to 127.0.0.1 on port 62516.
I saw the C:\Program files\Cisco Systems\VPN Client\cvpnd.exe in my network policy, and I’ve deleted it. Now I have added it again, and this time allow everything to get in/out in any ports. However this still not fix the problem.
again, thanks for your time and the suggestion :Beer
You can also try to remove the policy rule for the c:\program files\cisco systems\vpn client\vpngui.exe
Those are the only 2 entries i have for the CPVN client.
What kind of rules do you have in the Global Properties ?
You should also think of upgrading the Cisco Client latest 4.8.x = 4.8.02.0010 (won’t fix your problem though).
Did you try to restart the cisco service ?
Some internet posts sugest the client loses track of the network adapters in the system (standby/wireless on/off etc).
open a command box and try
net stop cvpnd
net start cvpnd
after that try to start your vpngui, see if you still get the Subsystem Error.
